Tom &Jerry is a very popular cartoon. Tom &Jerry are fictional character, where Jerry is very clever and Tom is little bit of a fool.

Now-a-days cartoons continue to play an important role in popular culture and have a magnificent future. In the seventies several classic cartoons

were censored when broadcast on television because they were considered a bad influence on children. For example- Tom &Jerry were singled out because the cartoons often showcased explosions, gunshots, physical deformations and weapons. Cartoo

n characters however always survive these actions which, in the eyes of critics, is an unrealistic message to children who mig

ht believe when you hurt or kill someone he will remain unharmed.

It increases aggressiveness and anti-social behavior, makes children less sensitive to violence and to victims of violence, and it increases their appetite for more violence in entertainment and in real life. Cartoon violence damaging to the children, because they cannot tell the difference between real life and fantasy.
